Col du Galibier

Reviewed By MJH1 - Bedfordshire, United Kingdom

We drove up to the top of the Col (bit hairy!) and then bombed down the mountain bike trail to Serre Chevalier. (where we had left another car). Great mountain decent - about 15km and 1100m decent. Not too tricky (probably a blue grade by local standards). The trail is marked Watch the weather - have a lightweight jacket as it got cool quick even in the summer

Ville Ancienne

Reviewed By Happywa5578

Chambery old town is a small area of medieval buildings, mostly houses set amid hidden courtyards and narrow passages. Several of the houses have towers housing spiral staircases - the higher the tower the more important was the family! There are short stretches of the old fortified town walls and some lovely arcades (rue de Boigne). The old town has many bars and restaurants as well as interesting shops, including traditional chocolatiers and cheese mongers. It is well worth a stroll for an hour or so and a drink or meal. If arriving by car, park in one of the big car parks and walk from there.

Just walk off the ski lift "la Ramasse" for half an hour and you will find this gem of a view... It's cold up there so be sure to equip yourself acording to weather conditions.
